We're building a medical application that needs to print reports based on data in Sybase formatted with horizontal and vertical lines and with different fonts. We looked at improv and dataphile and are going to look at framemaker as commercial stuff we could send our data to, but none of those things look sufficient at this point. We're also looking around at sybase report generating tools, SQR being a likely candidate. Again, so far these seem limited. How do other folks handle this kind of thing? The reports are the main thing this app provides the users, so they need to look snazzy. Also, the user's are probably going to keep changing the requirements about how the data should be laid out, so we'd like to have a method that makes changes easy. thanks -- Jim Campbell Duke Univ.
